The availability of high-fidelity simulation tools for these complex microsystems can help accelerate the design cycle significantly. However, current models rely on a point particle approximation and are incapable of describing large particle dynamics or biochemical coupling adequately. In a novel development, we have successfully developed computational models for finite-sized cells/bead assay design within a multiphysics biomicrofluidic simulation software suite, CFD-ACE+. The developed models fully integrate large bead dynamics, convective-diffusive analyte transport and biomolecular binding on bead surface. In this paper, we present the modeling framework, along with several validation and demonstration case studies. | | ISBN: | 0-9728422-7-6 |
